Compute the curl of F(x,y,z) = (e^x sqrt[1+x^2])/(1+sin^4(x)) + ....

Hello! I'm looking for help breaking down the steps for this curl. I understand that one needs to take the cross product of the gradient and F. I understand how to set the problem up which results in this


I'm stuck after that.

Thank you for your time.

Correct me if I'm wrong (it's been a while), but aren't all the partial derivatives in the determinant equal to zero?

You're right. The professor got me on the ole make it look menacing gag. The classic blunder!

Thanks!
